LBK & so right-type 1 has nothing to do with body weight or eating habits. The reason why undiagnosed diabetes causes rapid weight loss is: Insulin is responsible for converting food into energy, Since Type 1 don’t produce any insulin the body’s cells do not receive the glucose they need for energy and the body is forced to burn fat stores for energy.
